Associate Custodian, Evening
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Remove boilerplate etc.
We need to parse the job description.
Content:
- What You'll be Doing: list of duties.
- Schedule: Monday-Thursday + Sunday, 2:00pm to 10:30pm
- Starting Pay: $15.00 plus $0.70 shift differential for a total of $15.70 per hour
- Benefits: list: Paid Time Off – Generous vacation, holiday, sick, and military leave; Retirement Contributions – Purdue contributes up to 8% of your annual income; Educational Opportunities – Tuition assistance for you and eligible family members, including the opportunity to earn a degree through Purdue Global; Comprehensive Insurance – Medical, dental, and vision coverage; Life Insurance – Financial protection for you and your loved ones
- What We're Looking For: Education and Experience (S1) and (S2) and What's Nice To Have.
We need to separate sections: maybe "Responsibilities" (What You'll be Doing). "Requirements" maybe combine Education and Experience? "Qualifications" maybe same? "Skills" maybe list skills needed. "Benefits". "Pay". "Schedule". Also maybe "About the role" could be a brief description? The posting includes a description about contributing to research enterprise etc. Could be "About the role". We'll include that as a paragraph.
We must not include headings with filler. So we need to decide which sections have content.
Let's extract:
About the role: The description includes: "Assist in maintaining a clean, safe, and healthy environment in University facilities. Learn to provide custodial services for the University in areas such as classrooms, offices, research labs, and public spaces. Develop relationships with building occupants and respond to requests. Provide building access by locking and unlocking areas as scheduled by the department. Perform groundskeeping, snow removal, and other miscellaneous tasks as assigned. Respond to campus crisis situations as required to enhance public safety and minimize infrastructure damage. Contribute to Purdue’s $600 million research enterprise by maintaining a clean and healthy environment that supports innovation and discovery. This position represents a dual-level posting and will be filled as an Associate Custodian or Custodian. The hiring manager will determine the job level based on the skills, experience, and qualifications of the selected candidate."
That's substantive. So we can have About the role
with a
containing that paragraph. Responsibilities: The "What You'll be Doing:" list is essentially responsibilities. Could be same as above but we already used that for About the role. However we could split: About the role could be a brief overview; Responsibilities could be the bullet list. But the instructions: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could combine About the role and Responsibilities into one section? But we need to follow headings list; we can include both if they have distinct content. The "What You'll be Doing:" is a list of duties. The earlier paragraph also includes duties. Might be overlapping. To avoid thin sections, maybe we just have one section "Responsibilities" containing the list. And maybe "About the role" could be omitted or combined. But we need to decide. We have also Schedule, Pay, Benefits, Requirements/Qualifications/Skills. We have two levels of qualifications (S1 and S2) and Nice To Have. We could have a section "Requirements" that includes Education and Experience for both levels, maybe as separate subpoints. And a section "Skills" that lists skills needed (common). Or we could combine Requirements and Skills into one? But better to separate as they have distinct content. Let's extract: Education and Experience (S1): No formal education or experience required. Education and Experience (S2): Six months of custodial experience; 24 months of total work experience. What's Nice To Have: One year of general work experience; A valid US or Canadian Driver's License. Skills Needed (common for both S1 and S2): Must complete onboarding training, or be enrolled in program within 90 days of hire; Must be able to read, speak, and understand English to effectively communicate and understand others; Basic math skills and good work organization (S1) or good organization required (S2); Ability to learn and use powered and non-powered floor care equipment; Must be able to work well with others and work in a team environment; Learn and follow safety procedures, including wearing personal protective equipment as required; Ability to lift and carry 25 to 50 lbs. frequently, and up to 60 lbs. occasionally; Work outdoors 10% of the time in temperatures below 32 degrees and above 90 degrees. Note: S1 says "Basic math skills and good work organization". S2 says "Basic math skills and good organization required". Essentially same. We can combine skills list. Now Benefits: list as given. Pay: Starting Pay: $15.00 plus $0.70 shift differential for a total of $15.70 per hour. Schedule: Monday-Thursday + Sunday, 2:00pm to 10:30pm. Now we need to output HTML fragment with
headings and - for lists,
for prose.
We must not include boilerplate like "Apply Today!", "Join a Team...", "What We’d Like You To Know:", "Who We Are:", "Equal Opportunity Employer:", etc.
Also remove "FLSA: Non-Exempt (Eligible For Overtime)", "Retirement Eligibility: Non-exempt Defined Contribution Plan", "Career Stream Administrative and Operational Support 1Pay Band: S030Job Code: 20002509Administrative and Operational Support 2Pay Band: S030Job Code: 20002510 Career Path Maker: ..." etc.
Now decide sections:
- About the role: maybe we can have a short paragraph summarizing role (the first sentences). But we already have responsibilities list. Could combine About the role and Responsibilities into one section "Responsibilities". But the instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't require us to use all; we can choose which to include based on content.
We have content for: Responsibilities (the list), Requirements (education/experience), Skills (list), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Also maybe "About the role" could be a brief overview separate from responsibilities. But we could omit About the role to avoid thin section. However we have a paragraph that describes role beyond list; but that paragraph is also part of responsibilities. Could we put that paragraph in Responsibilities as prose before the list? Yes.
Thus we can have:
Responsibilities
Assist in maintaining a clean, safe, and healthy environment in University facilities. Learn to provide custodial services for the University in areas such as classrooms, offices, research labs, and public spaces. Develop relationships with building occupants and respond to requests. Provide building access by locking and unlocking areas as scheduled by the department. Perform groundskeeping, snow removal, and other miscellaneous tasks as assigned. Respond to campus crisis situations as required to enhance public safety and minimize infrastructure damage. Contribute to Purdue’s $600 million research enterprise by maintaining a clean and healthy environment that supports innovation and discovery. This position represents a dual-level posting and will be filled as an Associate Custodian or Custodian. The hiring manager will determine the job level based on the skills, experience, and qualifications of the selected candidate.
- ... list of duties? Actually the paragraph already includes many duties. But the "What You'll be Doing:" list includes similar items. To avoid duplication, we could just keep the paragraph and not list again. However the instruction says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. If we have a list, we should use ul. The paragraph is not a list. The "What You'll be Doing:" is a list but we already captured many items in paragraph. To be safe, we could turn the "What You'll be Doing:" into a ul list, and keep the paragraph as intro. But that would duplicate some content. However we must preserve ALL substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. If we omit some bullet points, we lose detail. The paragraph includes many but not all? Let's compare.
Paragraph includes:
- Assist in maintaining a clean, safe, and healthy environment in University facilities.
- Learn to provide custodial services for the University in areas such as classrooms, offices, research labs, and public spaces.
- Develop relationships with building occupants and respond to requests.
- Provide building access by locking and unlocking areas as scheduled by the department.
- Perform groundskeeping, snow removal, and other miscellaneous tasks as assigned.
- Respond to campus crisis situations as required to enhance public safety and minimize infrastructure damage.
- Contribute to Purdue’s $600 million research enterprise by maintaining a clean and healthy environment that supports innovation and discovery.
- This position represents a dual-level posting and will be filled as an Associate Custodian or Custodian.
- The hiring manager will determine the job level based on the skills, experience, and qualifications of the selected candidate.
The "What You'll be Doing:" list includes:
- Assist in maintaining a clean, safe, and healthy environment in University facilities.
- Learn to provide custodial services for the University in areas such as classrooms, offices, research labs, and public spaces.
- Develop relationships with building occupants and respond to requests.
- Provide building access by locking and unlocking areas as scheduled by the department.
- Perform groundskeeping, snow removal, and other miscellaneous tasks as assigned.
- Respond to campus crisis situations as required to enhance public safety and minimize infrastructure damage.
- Contribute to Purdue’s $600 million research enterprise by maintaining a clean and healthy environment that supports innovation and discovery.
So the paragraph includes those plus extra about dual-level posting and hiring manager determination. So we can keep paragraph as is, and not need a separate list. The instruction says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. If we don't have a list, we don't need ul. So we can just have prose.
Thus Responsibilities section can be just the paragraph.
Now Requirements: we have Education and Experience (S1) and (S2) and Nice To Have. Could be a list.
We could structure as:
Requirements
Education and Experience (S1): No formal education or experience required.
Education and Experience (S2): Six months of custodial experience; 24 months of total work experience.
Nice to have: One year of general work experience; A valid US or Canadian Driver's License.
But we need to use - for any list. This is not a list of items but statements. Could still be prose. However we have multiple items; maybe better to use
for each category.
We could do:
Requirements
- Education and Experience (S1): No formal education or experience required.
- Education and Experience (S2): Six months of custodial experience; 24 months of total work experience.
- Nice to have: One year of general work experience; A valid US or Canadian Driver's License.
That satisfies using ul for list.
Now Skills: we have a list of skills needed (common). We'll output as ul.
Skills
- Must complete onboarding training, or be enrolled in program within 90 days of hire
for prose. We must not include boilerplate like "Apply Today!", "Join a Team...", "What We’d Like You To Know:", "Who We Are:", "Equal Opportunity Employer:", etc. Also remove "FLSA: Non-Exempt (Eligible For Overtime)", "Retirement Eligibility: Non-exempt Defined Contribution Plan", "Career Stream Administrative and Operational Support 1Pay Band: S030Job Code: 20002509Administrative and Operational Support 2Pay Band: S030Job Code: 20002510 Career Path Maker: ..." etc. Now decide sections: - About the role: maybe we can have a short paragraph summarizing role (the first sentences).
